How are gobstoppers like liberalism
All of the other teachers in the Social Studies Annex tolerate with Ms. Lucash's obsession with gobstoppers and create peace in the department by offering her gobstoppers. This is because all of the teachers in the Social Studies department have the mutual interest in promoting liberal ideals like proper citation, double-entry notes, and obsessive footnoting. Because all of the teachers share this interest and have similar values such as passion for stressing students out, they are willing to create peace in the department, despite the crunching of gobstoppers.
